War Taylor

Famous quotes containing the words war and/or taylor:

    “No more shall the war cry sever,
    Or the winding rivers be red:
    They banish our anger forever
    When they laurel the graves of our dead!
    Under the sod and the dew,
    Waiting the Judgment Day:—
    Love and tears for the Blue;
    Tears and love for the Gray.”
    —Francis Miles Finch (1827–1907)

    “An orphan’s curse would drag to hell
    A spirit from on high;
    But oh! more horrible than that
    Is a curse in a dead man’s eye!”
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
